That was a lot of eggcelerarion data to go through.

The collaboration I absolutely never would have expected 😅 You are so diligent, professional and serious, and William Osman is... well he's William Osman.

I like how allen just chilled in the background of the video looking around xD

as soon as you mentioned the code being open-source, my mind went to integrating it into games. could be as simple as as "gather your friends around, whoever can chuck it at the ground the hardest wins" to something more complex like making a realistic cooking mama minigame where you have to find the right amount of force to hit it against something to "crack" it without just full on breaking it. Could also maybe make a golf game where the harder you hit it with/against something, the farther your golf ball goes. EDIT cause i just thought of another idea: race through an obstacle course while trying to keep the egg's forces at a minimal level. challenge yourself or friends to minmax speed and gentleness!

There is nothing I love more than knowledgeable people unconditionally sharing their knowledge, because that’s how we really raise each other up

i love the fact that allen pan is squatting in the corner like he is not totally in frame 8:43

Good work Stefan. What a talented 3d printing youtuber can achieve! Congratulations from Switzerland!

This is brilliant Stefan! I'm already looking at how we could implement an egg drop competition using the smart egg in my local IMechE region as a STEM event for school children, university students and maybe even professional engineers! Being able to visualise the data and the OLED screen will be cool for children. It'll add some interesting maths for engineering students and potentially tough competition between groups of professional engineers.

I think it would be interesting to find a way to non-destructively simulate point impacts. Even if you have an overall slower fall, when the impact is concentrated onto a small point the egg will still break. I imagine a primitive version of a resistive touch screen. I think this would be a great addition to help grade low impacts

I think you now have some type of obligation to put on the youtube egg drop equivalent of the Red Bull Flugtag. DO IT!!!!!!

Excited to see you both at OpenSauce

What an amazing idea of a project! I love the amount of information your design can catch.

Over the past couple of weeks I've been making a slightly similar project myself in the form of an acceleration & speed sensing baseball to improve my throw. Something I really can't stress enough is the convenience of a wireless dashboard! It's been significantly less effort just having someone with a phone watching the live graph and max values than having to take an SD card out to plug into a computer every time! Loved the video, concept, and design!

this is genuinely such a great idea! I remember doing egg drops in elementary school and been high school, and the results were obviously very binary (and hard to clean up!). This seems like such a good way to fix that, while still keeping the spirit of the challenge. Good stuff!

Alan has never been so quite on a video.

The dynamics and engineering of braking an egg are so complex that an accelerometer doesn't give enough data. V2.0 needs an array of tiny strain gauges measuring the force repartition on the shell of the egg

Tomodroppi is an EXTREMELY creative and fitting name!

Anybody else notice like halfway through when they show William the egg Allen pan in the background just nodding his head, waving it back-and-forth and smiling

This is such a nice and cute idea with a lot of scientific and maker aspects along the way. It's a super cool idea, and the collaboration - although I didn't know William - made things much more fun.
